Three, four
[Verse 1]
Second place is only right
Sending love to you each night
You won the race, you did survive
Flickering into the holy light
[Verse 2]
Mouth the words you couldn't say
Your last regards, your will, whatever
Maybe I was young and crazy
Said "do you want to see the grave?"
[Chorus]
Seal the image in your brain
Your stone's a monumental shame
Seal the image in your brain
Your stone's a monumental shame
